Introduction to the custom of lighting lanterns during the Mid-Autumn Festival

On the night of the Mid-Autumn Festival, there is a custom of lighting lanterns to help the moonlight. Nowadays, people in the Huguang area still have the custom of stacking tiles into a tower and lighting lanterns on the tower.
In the Jiangnan area, there is a festival custom of making lantern boats. In modern times, the custom of lighting lanterns during the Mid-Autumn Festival has become more popular. Zhou Yunjin and He Xiangfei, both modern scholars, wrote in their article “Random Thoughts on Seasonal Events”: “The lantern festival in Guangdong is the most popular, and families make lanterns out of bamboo strips ten days before the festival.
Make shapes of fruits, birds, animals, fish, insects, and words like "Celebrate Mid-Autumn Festival", then paste colored paper on them and paint them in various colors. On the night of Mid-Autumn Festival, candles are lit in lanterns tied with ropes to bamboo poles and erected high on the eaves or terraces. Small lanterns are also used to form words or various shapes and hung high up in the house, commonly known as "Tree Mid-Autumn Festival" or "Vertical Mid-Autumn Festival".
The lanterns hung by wealthy families could be several meters high, and the family members would gather under the lanterns to drink and have fun. Ordinary people would put up a flagpole and two lanterns, also to have fun. The city is full of lights, like a world of glass. The scale of the Mid-Autumn Festival lantern-lighting custom seems to be second only to the Lantern Festival.
